So you want to learn how to play piano<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve come to the right place! For beginners, learning piano can be a rewarding adventure, but it can also get overwhelming. With so many resources and learning paths out there, it\u2019s difficult to know where to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, we\u2019ll run through the key things you need to get started on the right foot. (Or rather, hand!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Steps for Beginner Success<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Create an environment that inspires you to practice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s face it: motivating yourself to practice is HARD. So make it task as easy as possible for yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can do this by creating an accessible, cozy, and welcoming practice space. For example, if you never go down to the basement, don\u2019t put your piano in the basement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decorate your space and make it your own. Hang some warm fairy lights. Put your piano in your favorite room in your favorite corner. And make sure your seating, music stands, and lighting are comfortable and ergonomic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a cozy space is so important that we made a whole post just about it. Check it out<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Schedule your practicing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To schedule your practice sessions is to think carefully about the best time to practice. And committing to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help you plan and commit, you can use the Pianote Practice Planner<\/a> or any scheduling tool. What\u2019s most important is being consistent<\/em>. It\u2019s better to practice 10 minutes a day every day than it is to binge-practice an hour once a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
